Business issues
Why is it recommended to use the mPaaS kernel?
Technical continuity: The mPaaS kernel, developed by Ant Group, ensures more controllable and reliable upgrades and maintenance.
Cost efficiency: The mPaaS kernel provides the same capabilities as the UC kernel but at a more affordable annual cost per application.
Seamless integration: Originating from Alipay's technology, the mPaaS kernel's integration and compatibility with other client-side features have been thoroughly tested.
Having already accessed UC 5.0 for free, do I need to continue paying for UC 5.0 in the future?
If you accessed UC 3.0 or UC 5.0 for free before the UC commercialization policy change and do not pay for the UC Key:
UC will not provide technical support or address technical issues that may arise during subsequent use.
As the Android operating system evolves, the original UC 3.0 or UC 5.0 will not be updated to keep pace with new client operating system versions.
Therefore, transitioning to the mPaaS kernel is recommended to avoid future uncontrollable changes from the UC side.
What dimension is MYWeb's authorization charged by?
Authorization is charged per App. The mPaaS kernel authorization code is tied to the App's package name and sign, and does not depend on the number of environments.
Technical issues
Is it confirmed that this event only affects Android clients, and does it affect iOS and H5 interfaces?
This event is confirmed to affect only Android clients and does not impact iOS. H5 offline packages on Android clients require regression testing to ensure functionality after the kernel switch.
If neither UC key 5.0 is used nor migration is performed, what are the consequences and impacts on customers?
Without using UC key 5.0 or migrating, client compatibility issues, such as adaptation to Android 16, will remain unresolved, potentially leading to a degraded experience. The UC key in use will not receive updates, maintenance, or support for troubleshooting.
How long does it take to integrate the mPaaS kernel?
The integration typically takes two days, with full technical support and guidance provided by mPaaS. After the integration is completed, customers need to perform regression testing and verification on all mini programs and H5 services.
Can the mPaaS kernel be comparable to the UC kernel, and does it have any impact on end-users?
It can be completely comparable to 5.0, and it offers a more current Chromium version and Android platform version than UC 5.0, with no impact on end-user experience.
Will switching from the UC kernel to the mPaaS kernel affect the use of other mPaaS capabilities? Can it be switched smoothly?
Switching to the mPaaS kernel will not affect the use of other mPaaS features and can be done smoothly.
